Can I create an executable file to perform a keyboard command?

2006-08-05 20:50:29, Category: Programming & Design
Hi, I'm trying to access my work computer remotely using my favorite program, but I've got to have some way to hit Ctrl + Alt + Del in order to login. The program I use itself doesn't have a command to perform this, but I can execute files. I'm pretty new to doing this kind of stuff--so is there anyway I can create a .bat file or .exe file or something that I can remotely execute so that I can make my computer think I'm typing Ctrl + Alt + Del? Thanks in advance! Okay thanks for the responses... I just don't know how to write it is my problem... I use Remote Office Manager. I've tried pretty much every remote program out there and this is my favorite one and I'd like to use it if possible. I've already been through the help files for the program, but maybe I'll try to find a forum for the program or something. I'll report back my findings.

    Make it clear, what you want to do? 1. Execute a file? 2. Do something with an open file? contact me anilkumarnd@yahoo.com

    For Remote Desktop: Ctrl + Alt + End RealVNC client: Right-click the task bar entry, and click "Send Ctrl + Alt + Delete" (and TightVNC should be similar). Side note, if you're dead set on coding a solution: A lot of the VNC tools are open source, and have this functionality. The solution would be in the code.

    There are ways to do this in several different languages as executable program, Visual Basic for instance...search the codes at http://www.planetsourcecode.com

    First, try CTRL-ALT-END. I've heard that it sometimes works as well. Otherwise, unless your program has a special 'Send Ctrl-Alt-Del' command, I doubt there's an easy way to do this. Google doesn't have anything, and if it's not on Google, it usually doesn't exist. What program are you trying to use to connect? Read the FAQs and check your help files...I'm sure you're not the first person to run across this issue. Hope that helps.
